Cultural Background
In Iranian universities, using 'az in roo' in a thesis is almost mandatory to show academic rigor. Classical poets used the concept of 'roo' (face) to describe the many facets of divine truth. News anchors use this phrase to maintain a 'neutral' and 'objective' tone while reporting facts. Using formal connectors in business letters (Nāme-ye Edāri) is a sign of respect to the recipient's status.
